Producer Neenah Ellis travels to the Dalmatian coast of Croatia with her father to check in on relatives, to see how they're coping during the war. As they travel together, father and daughter try to understand the life of their forbears left behind when they emigrated to the U.S. before World War I. They discover the island peasant life is nearly gone, and after fifty years of communism, hard work and personal pride may be gone as well.
